Why not let people replace replace the other kds banner instead of replacing the ad space. Seems like it would...
1. be more worth it
2. make more economic sense (you aren't eliminating any ads)
3. be more fun
I don't really see the sense in it's current format...
It's easier and free to just taunt them with your own banner like we all do now. This was a complete waste of time by B&S that should have been spent fixing existing issues or making features that make sense.
And Bishop I'm curious why you closed my thread about this, it was a legitimate suggestion to think about what they are using their time and resources on. You had no grounds to close it.
@OP - +1
Move it to there and knock the price down to 20 Credits from 40. I'd be much more likely to purchase one for $6 than $10.
I can see some fun uses for this tbh, just not in it's current format.
Because your suggestion was whining, frankly, and i have no time for it. I am also not going to entertain suggestions that the developers don't try new features.Quote:

Not happening.
Erm...this isn't a 'Let's bash/discuss Taunting' thread...
I certainly did NOT say they shouldn't try new features. This one just makes no sense and will generate no income. There are glaring issues waiting to be addressed that the time they spent on this would have been much better used on, and maybe half a dozen premium features that would have made money they should have worked on instead if they didn't want to actually fix things. Frankly, I don't care if you think I was whining, because I am right. What you do or don't have time for has nothing to do with you closing a legitimate thread with a real suggestion. Choose more wisely what to code, plain and simple.Quote:

You can read about it on the new blog at blog.utopia-game.com
TLDR: DHaran, try harder with your suggestions.
Already know about the rest, and good job on some of that. Doesn't change that nobody is going to pay for Taunts. The question remains why they spend sooooo much time on these things when there are 100 tiny fixes they could make to get rid of some existing issues people CONTINUALLY post here about. At the very least it would stop people from wasting forum time fixing some of those things, rather than a feature I highly doubt anyone is going to pay for.
How do you know how long it took to code the taunts up? How do you know that no-one will use it? Also, i believe you will find that we do indeed address issues - don't forget though that without money utopia is going no-where.
I agree with Ordray that the price is a little high for only 24 hours.
exactly. You can sit for 1 credit a day, and this taunt will cost 40 credits? tbh I d not pay more then 1 credit a day for a taunt either (if I d buy it at all)
to be fair, if everybody in a 20-prov kingdom chips in, it's only 2 credits each, but still
